This information is a day late. We have been without water since the early hours of Wednesday morning and you are posting information as if this is a new issue today (Thursday). Also the information about water being available was not advertised yesterday until it was 'closed' and no longer available. I am utterly disappointed with the lack of information and concern for rate paying households left without water for days. I assume there is a compensation procedure or are you going to be secretive about that too?

The bottled water station is all well and good, but what about the people who don't have access to a car? There are a number of elderly in the area and. thanks to the great transport links, a lot of people don't have cars around here any more. Is there any possibility of deliveries to the vulnerable?

I have only just found out about this water and have been without running water for 2 days at Heron Court. Signs need to be put up locally. What time is it availbe until as I cannot get there till 9pm, could have gone yesterday if I had known. There are also elderly and those without cars at Heron Court and I am sure more local areas, this is a long way to walk. More local drop off points would be useful. This obviously isn't a solution but would help mildly with the issue. We need hot running water ASAP!

I have only just found out about this water and now cannot get there till 9pm, will it still be open at this time? Signs throughout area are needed. There are elderly and those without cars at Heron Court and thourought the area who have no way of accessing. More local drop offs needed.

This information that you uploading to the website and here is nothing more than a holding message and is out of date. The fact that you are handing out water and keep banging on about it is utterly pathetic, we're not running a marathon or in a drought ridden country.

The only details that people want are when it's going to be fixed. Working round the clock, doing all you can etc. etc. good to know and tbh we shouldn't expect anything less.

Let's clear up a few points.

1. This occured yesterday (17th July) not this morning at 06:30.

2. This has occured in exactly the same location before. This would clearly indicate negligence of the part of Thames Water, you've worked on this site several times and clearly cannot or have not fixed the issue.

3. The damage to the Gas mains was not present on Wednesday, this occured overnight and was damaged by your own spanner monkeys. See point 2. ref negligence.

4. When will it be fixed? What are your SLA's here?

5. Given points 2 & 3, you should be concerned about class action, it would be easy to gain support and easier to cast blame.

6. Your on-line customer services representatives, clearly have zero empowerment, all they can comment, is that a) we are working on it and b) we have set up a water station.

I suggest you start a) giving out more tangible information, b) start working on a fix ETA and communcating that, in my world we call that a deadline, you set one and you work towards it.
